So,
I'm getting some braided hoses for my Hornet, got the front ones for an '01 plate, but they'll fit cause 98-02 is all pretty much the same.
now my questions about the rear, they removed the listing for the 01 rear :/, and the one i'm looking at is an '05, so did Honda change anything significant on the rear between 98 and 05 to stop a 05 hose fitting a '99?
I know all that really matters is length, I just wanna be sure!

Mike

TL;DR Will a REAR 2005 hornet Braided hose fit a 1999 Hornet?

Can't you just measure the diameter of the current hose to compare it against the diameter of the hose in question?

It's a brake hose :S and i'm replacing the thick rubber one with the smaller braided one.
The diameter's irrelevant, its purely the length that matters.

I meant the actual connector part of the hose, i.e. the nozzle size.

If the length is all that matters then measure the length of the current hose and compare it against the hose you wish to order?

You could have done it by now and have ordered the part already Thumbs Up

The banjo's changeable, and I have no access to the length of the hoses, no do I know if they're exactly the same length because my standard one has loads of excess slack on it.
I wouldn't post on here without having tried to find some stuff out first haha.
